Where demographics meet asset value.
Florida added over 365,000 residents in 2024 — more than any other state. That demographic engine drives one of the most active multifamily markets in the country. SVN Premier Capital represents owners and investors in garden-style, mid-rise, and high-rise apartment transactions across Central and South Florida.
Multifamily is no longer a single asset class. Class-A urban high-rise, suburban garden-style, value-add Class-B, build-to-rent (BFR) communities, and short-term rental conversions each have their own buyer pools, financing structures, and underwriting nuances. Our advisors work across all of them.
Florida’s combination of population growth, no state income tax, and continued in-migration from the Northeast and West Coast continues to compress cap rates relative to national averages — even as interest rates remain elevated. The question for owners isn’t whether to sell, but when and to whom.
Asset types we cover
Whether you’re acquiring, selling, leasing, or tenant-representing, we bring sub-specialty expertise to every multifamily engagement:
- Class-A garden-style
- Mid-rise & high-rise urban
- Value-add Class-B
- Build-for-rent (BFR)
- Workforce housing
- 55+ & active adult
- Short-term rental conversions
- Mixed-use multifamily
Our approach
For multifamily dispositions, we focus on what buyers actually underwrite: T-12 financials, rent roll growth trajectory, expense ratios, deferred maintenance, and the realistic path to stabilization for value-add deals. For acquisitions, we surface off-market opportunities through our SVN network and bring institutional underwriting to private capital deals.
We also advise on operational decisions — from rent strategy to amenity prioritization to refinance timing — that protect NOI and asset value between transactions.
Florida multifamily market insights
Orlando, Tampa, and Jacksonville continue to lead Florida’s multifamily absorption. South Florida (Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach) commands premium pricing but compressed yields. Central Florida hits a sweet spot for many investors — strong rent growth, reasonable cap rates, and supply that’s still absorbing rather than oversaturating.
Build-for-rent communities are emerging as the fastest-growing sub-asset class. We connect institutional capital to entitled BFR sites and stabilized portfolios across the state.
